Dude we are misunderstanding each other here...

I am not defending AI at all... in fact, from your comment it seems we both hate it equally.

All I was saying is that they have already "shown" this magical scanning of fridge as a function already available... it turned out to be complete garbage and fake (as most of the AI over hype they have pumped) but they did. Please note I actually posted as "in what turned out to be one of the many AI scams"

Here is the vid where they "showed" how this is supposed to work and how it actually flops hilariously: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLvFc_24vSM

Going back to the original thread, my intention was to say that AI was promised as a way for anyone to be a programmer now. That is not me saying it, that is literally what was pumped out. To an extend, a very short extend, this is true. You can get a little script going or maybe even some heavy Excel spreadsheet manipulation with AI tools and not knowing any code. But that is the end of it.

What I have been able to confirm AI doing is about 30% of what is being promised out there... literally the "pro" vs "nailed it" discrepancy. I also agree with you in that this bit of AI that does work is not worth the harm we are doing to jobs, the environment, etc
